Hi there,
Last christmas my sister-in-law turned up at my mother-in-law's house after my father-in-law's passing.
Backstory: MIL and FIL fell out over 30 years ago which resulted in FIL banning SIL from house. As he's recently died, SIL has come back in a group setting (ie. me, husband, BIL, and children). I feel awkward as I've actually only been in her company about 8 times in nearly 30 years. Came into the room very huffy and never spoke to me and my husband. She told her daughter on her wedding day 'why are you marrying into this family for?'. Told my MIL that she is not fit to babysit her granddaughter. This is not my issue - however given the context of her outbursts suddenly she is making a home visit when we turn up after a disappearance of 20 years at in-laws home. I'd like some advice about how to handle her because we are not personal friends; she had used my london flat like a hotel and then made sure that we weren't invited us to niece's wedding. Weirdest thing was that BIL showed divorce papers to my husband and she is staying at a different house with no wedding ring on.
